AI in Arts - Start painting with NovelAI

NovelAI - The GPT-powered AI Storyteller

I’m so excited about this “magic” tech - using AI to complete an art piece.

The way to prepare a painting-AI locally is very easy and clear, just following the guide from git:

• GitHub - AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui: Stable Diffusion web UI

  Automatic Installation on Windows

  1. Install Python 3.10.6, checking “Add Python to PATH”
  2. Install git.
  3. Download the stable-diffusion-webui repository, for example by running git clone https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui.git.
  4. Place model.ckpt in the models directory (see dependencies for where to get it).
  5. (Optional) Place GFPGANv1.4.pth in the base directory, alongside webui.py (see dependencies for where to get it).
  6. Run webui-user.bat from Windows Explorer as normal, non-administrator, user.
